Roadside Survey of Ants on Oahu, Hawaii
Hawaii is home to over 60 ant species, including five of the six most damaging invasive ants. Although there have been many surveys of ants in Hawaii, the last island-wide hand-collection survey of ants on Oahu was conducted in 1988-1994. In 2012, a timed hand-collection of ants was made at 44 sites in a systematic, roadside survey throughout Oahu. Ants were identified and species distribution ...
متن کاملDiurnal Weather Patterns on Oahu and Lanai, Hawaii
WEATHER FORECASTING in the Pacific area has been predominantly aimed at serving airplane operations. On the other hand, little or no developmental work has been done to provide bases for weather forecasts for agriculture. In Hawaii the two largest industries are agricultural-the growing of sugar cane and pineapples. Techniques and organization to provide both longand short-range forecasts would...
متن کاملEffects of rotational closure on coral reef fishes in Waikiki-Diamond Head Fishery Management Area, Oahu, Hawaii
No-take marine reserves can be effective biodiversity conservation and fisheries management tools, but as yet there is little indication of whether rotational management, i.e. alternately closing and opening an area to fishing, might also confer such benefits on coral reef fish stocks. Using data taken from the state of Hawaii’s long-term reef monitoring program, we have assessed the effects of...
متن کاملQuantity, composition, and source of sediment collected in sediment traps along the fringing coral reef off Molokai, Hawaii.
Sediment traps were used to evaluate the frequency, cause, and relative intensity of sediment mobility/resuspension along the fringing coral reef off southern Molokai (February 2000-May 2002). Two storms with high rainfall, floods, and exceptionally high waves resulted in sediment collection rates>1000 times higher than during non-storm periods, primarily because of sediment resuspension by wav...
متن کاملEffectiveness of a coral-derived surfacing material for reducing sediment production on unpaved roads, Schoffield barracks, Oahu, Hawaii.
This study evaluated the effectiveness of two application rates of a coral-derived surfacing material for both traffic and nontraffic road conditions using simulated rainfall (110-120 mm h(-1) for 30-90 min) on 0.75-m (wide) x 5.0-m (long) plots of similar slope (roughly 0.1 m m(-1)). The coral is a locally available material that has been applied to unpaved roads surfaces on Schoffield Barrack...
